Getting the glass room
- Book it by name. Choose "Aurora Hut glass igloo", not a standard room or cabin.
- Ask about what the website doesn't say. It doesn't mention: heated or defrosting glass, private hot tub. Email before you pay.
- Check the confirmation. It should name the glass room. If it doesn't, contact the property.
